- Attention -
Owners of buggies occasionally complaining that piano boxes open
at the corners. When this happens it is because they have allowed
moisture to get to the sills and frame of the body. These are
bone dry, and if they swell nothing can keep the corners from
opening. If water is left in the bottom of the body when washed,
or if a wet carpet is left in the buggy after it has been out
in the rain, the corners will open. Caution your customers on
this point. Our bodies are built in the best possible manner.
